Making A Simple Sensual Massage Bar

Valentine’s Day is this weekend and I can’t believe it is almost here! The year just seems to be flying by. Today I wanted to make a simple massage bar that is easy to travel with, gentle to apply and gives the skin a nice, dewy feel. Come join me!

Weigh everything into a microwave safe container. Heat gently until everything is completely melted. This took about 3 minutes for me.

If you are familiar with making lip balms and other salves, you know that there is a point that the mixture will become crystal clear. DO NOT expect that from this mixture. This recipe can be 180°F and it will still be cloudy, even though everything is melted.

Adding Dimethicone

I recommend using your trusty thermometer and immersion blender for this project. Using the immersion blender, mix the mixture well. Keep an eye out for anything that has not melted yet. If you see anything, keep blending. The heat and the agitation with help your oils and waxes melt and remained mixed.

Weighing Beeswax

If you need to reheat your mixture before you get it into your containers or molds, reheat the mixture and then blend it again. You don’t want to end up with some bars that are super hard and some that are semi-liquid.

Fill the mini deodorant tubes and allow to cool. Cap, label and enjoy!
